You guys are crazy good sleuths. Kitt, thanks for the intimidating but helpful information, and Taylor, thank you so much for that article. Seriously.

Kickpleat, I totally will. And Chelsea, seriously -- it just bites! It just bites. It irks.

Jen, I agree, the link is very kind but the verbatim entries and hotlinked photographs are just ridiculous, to me -- there is no need to do that, to copy material that blatantly.

Thanks again, dudes!

I just followed all the steps in this article on fighting scrapers.

Within 30 minutes of contacting the web hosting service, all my scraped posts were gone!!

yeah, i found a site or two that does the same thing with my blog. at first i thought it was some rss feed, but i'm not sure. if you find out what it is, let me know!

Jen

At least they are referencing the original link. I don't think they're passing it off as their original work. Although I could be wrong.

It still sucks that they didn't ask you!

Chelsea

OMG! I am so sorry! I hate it when people do stuff like that. I seriously just don't understand.

Kitt

I believe South Korea takes part in international copyright enforcement. Not sure if they'll react or even care if you suggest legal action will be taken, though ...

Good luck!
